This is not correct. Solaris 2.0 was a completely different implementation
than SunOS. Solaris 2.5.1 is  the first version that is comparable to 
SunOS 4.1.3 in speed, stability or any other metric you care to use.

Hmm, it's only taken them what - four, five years to whip Solaris into 
share. Now I suppose it's time to drop Solaris in favor of Spring or JavaOS.
